UK NationalsAs we approach September pay day this will be the last chance to buy tickets as event numbers will be fixed on 6th October.
In order to encourage you to buy your ticket the table below shows the achievements unlocked as numbers increase.
Currently we have 62 players signed up, with a country split as shown below. With 75 players from last year’s event still to buy tickets, there is still the potential for a record breaking attendance.

Artis Opus have kindly donated customised Drybrush sets and drybrush pads for first place in each of the 3 categories of the painting competition.
Many thanks for these awesome prizes.
Avatar of Artistry
Tickets are selling at a steady pace, but the earliest possible purchase would be appreciated to pay for the venue deposit and enable planning of the goody bag contents.
We are also happy to announce that Art Of War will again be supporting the event with some of their laser cut tokens. Welcome back.
The painting competition at the UK Nationals now has its own identity, the Avatar of Artistry, and its first unique sponsor.
The painting competition has 3 categories, and details are available here.
Our first sponsor is Artis Opus.
The UK Nationals has always welcomed overseas players, and we have seen players from a dozen countries compete over the past few years, often taking away trophies in addition to Best Overseas Player.
Already this year we have players signed up from Spain and Bahrain, so don’t delay and purchase your ticket now.
Tickets for this year’s event are now available from the event page. Simply choose the required quantity and enter the appropriate amount (£50/ticket) on the PayPal page.
This year we have a new venue which offers more space, a stage and bar with student prices. It is also within walking distance of Leicester city centre, and therefore multiple accommodation and food options.
We are pleased to announce that we have a new venue for 2024 enabling us to expand the capacity and be closer to accommodation and food.
The 2024 event will take place on 16/17th November at Leicester De Montfort University Students Union.
Further details to follow in early May.
We are please to announce that the 2023 Champion is Jamie Varney beating last year’s champion Radek Bry by a close margin.
Congratulations Jamie.
Both the History and Photo Gallery pages have been updated.
